Maybe somebody here can offer some insight:
I've just switched to a BP/Wings setup (DiveRite Transplate with Venture Wings. I typically dive a PST100 tank and wear a 3mm jumpsuit. I've been working on fine-tuning my bouyancy, but for the life of me, I can't seem to execute a Buddha-style hover without tipping to my right side or backward. :11: I'm guessing it has something to do with my tank position, but I'm not sure how to correct it.
For the record, with the above setup, I use no additional weight. I've got an M22 Abyss on a 7 ft hose, with my octo around my neck.
Any suggestions on how to troubleshoot this would be greatly appreciated. My horizontal bouyancy is pretty good, I can do the typical upside down, inverted roll, etc., but I just can't seem to make the sitting posture work for me. It's irritating!
Thanks in advance,
Grier
